Thyroid Out and Thank you for your wishes and posts and a Health NSV

I had surgery yesterday and was released from the pokey today!  It was good to get home and so nice to receive all your nice comments.  One thing I realized when I checked in yesterday  for surgery is that I can probably stop taking high blood pressure medicine very soon.  My BP was 120/70 when I checked in for surgery and 124/70 the week before for my pre op testing. I'm interested to see what the thyroid removal will do to my weight but we'll see.  I'm going to weigh myself officially tomorrow after I release some of this IV fluid.


I'm thankful for your virtual support and for the band!
